Country music standout Ella Langley continues to add to her breakthrough year after her latest single, “Be Her,” debuted at No. 24 on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary chart, giving the singer two songs on the ranking at the same time.
The new achievement comes while “Choosin’ Texas” remains at No. 11 on the same chart after spending 19 weeks there. The accomplishment marks the first time Langley has placed two songs simultaneously on Billboard‘s Adult Contemporary chart, highlighting her growing reach beyond traditional country radio.
Langley first gained national attention with her debut album Hungover, released two years ago. The project produced several successful singles, including collaborations with Riley Green and the solo hit “Weren’t for the Wind.” Her second album, Dandelion, has taken her career to another level, led by the blockbuster success of “Choosin’ Texas” and the growing popularity of “Be Her.”

‘Be Her’ Gives Ella Langley Another Milestone
This week’s Adult Contemporary chart features only three new entries, and “Be Her” earned the highest debut among them by opening at No. 24.
The song entered ahead of “Somewhere in the Night” by The Grimm and “Disco Star” by Village People. It also outperformed two returning songs on the chart, Alex Warren’s “Fever Dream” and Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me,” which re-entered at Nos. 29 and 30, respectively.
The Adult Contemporary chart is one of Billboard’s three pop-focused radio rankings alongside Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay. Unlike “Choosin’ Texas,” which reached all three radio charts, “Be Her” has so far only entered Adult Contemporary.
The debut also doubles Langley’s career entries on the Adult Contemporary chart. Her first appearance came earlier this year when “Choosin’ Texas” entered the ranking before eventually peaking at No. 10, becoming her first Top 10 hit on the chart.
The latest chart success adds to an already remarkable year for Langley.
Just two weeks ago, “Be Her” spent a fourth consecutive week at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, becoming her longest-leading Country Airplay hit. The song delivered 34.2 million audience impressions during the June 12–18 tracking period, according to Luminate.
Its four-week run surpassed “Choosin’ Texas,” which previously spent three nonconsecutive weeks atop the Country Airplay chart earlier this year.
Meanwhile, Langley is continuing her 2026 tour, performing as Dandelion remains one of the country’s biggest albums. The project is currently holding at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, further showing the sustained demand for both the album and its hit singles.
